Abstract (en)

A food processor of the kind that includes a machine stand, a basin, or jug, for receiving the foodstuff or foodstuffs to be processed, a basin lid, and one or more knives located at the bottom of the basin and driven by a drive shaft that projects up vertically through the bottom of the basin. The invention is characterized in that the machine stand (1) includes a front low part (6) which is adapted to support the basin (2) in operation, and a rear upstanding part (7) that extends up to approximately the same level as the upper level of the basin (2) when the basin is placed on the machine stand; in that the motor (8) of the machine is placed in the lower portion of the rear part (7); in that a lid holder (9) is mounted at the upper portion of the rear part (7) and can be swung about a horizontal pivot shaft (10) between a raised first pivot position (Figure 2a) and a lowered second pivot position (Figure 2d); in that the lid holder (9) is adapted to coact with the lid (3) in a manner such that the lid holder will be located in a predetermined position of rotation (Figure 2c) between the first and the second pivot position when the basin (2) is supported by the machine stand and the lid (3) is fitted to the basin; and in that the pivot shaft (10) of the lid holder (9) is adapted to coact with a switch (11) such that the switch will be actuated, so that the machine can be started, solely when the lid holder (9) is located in the predetermined position of rotation. <IMAGE>
